Wow. Can you feel that? That's America having taste when it comes to their horror flicks. Down goes Saw VI. Long live Paranormal Activity. And it appears we only like our vampires when Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are around.  Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant failed to crack the Top 5, finishing at #8. Amelia didn't soar to new heights, but that's because it only opened on 800 screens. It had a better per screen average than everything except Paranormal Activity.
